Don’t just take our word for it.
Here is what RingCentral customers
say about making the switch

Miranda S
Nextiva customer since 2022

“I recently changed from RingCentral to Nextiva for several reasons, one of which was to make things SIMPLER. So far using Nextiva, it has been remarkable. It’s everything, and more than I previously imagined. If one is looking into a VoIP Provider, I highly suggest you take a deep look at Nextiva.”

Katy B.
Nextiva customer since 2020

“We switched over to Nextiva in 2020 during the pandemic and it’s been a successful switch over for the firm.”

Tiffany S.
Nextiva customer since 2023

“Nextiva is a breath of fresh air after we left RingCentral! There are so many options with Nextiva. The customer support is excellent! You will always get someone on the phone or with chat within a couple minutes. Everyone from support is on point, and if they cannot answer a question, they will contact someone else, and the issue is resolved right away! I will defiantly, recommend Nextiva!”

Darrell N.
Nextiva customer since 2023

“Quality surpasses that of RingCentral and 8×8, both of which we’ve used in the past. Support also surpasses the competition. For us it’s QoS that goes a long way with service providers.”

Danny G.
Nextiva customer since 2023

“We were with Ringcentral for years now so I thought to check out what the alternatives were out there and ran into Nextiva. Got online with some questions, was immediately transferred to sales and long story short, looked at the demo, and was blown away. Support is out of this world and the functionalities were soo much better than Ringcentral. On top of that, we pay less than half of what we were paying Ringcentral.”

Pete W.
Nextiva customer since 2023

“After 15 years with RingCentral, I finally found out what VOIP was SUPPOSED to be. The phones work, the customer support is phenomenal, and the prices are fair.”

“We had RingCentral and changed to Nextiva. Nextiva’s service has been top-notch so far compared to RingCentral. It’s made our business so much easier, and we look forward to growing our business with them. Before, we were always scared of our service going down and being stuck again.”
